  • Midlands

This post is based at Wye Valley NHS Trust, part of an NHS Foundation Group with South Warwickshire NHS FT, George Eliot Hospital NHS Trust, and Worcestershire Acute Hospitals NHS Trust. Located near the Black Mountains on the Wales border, we provide acute and community services across Herefordshire and parts of Powys, operating Hereford County Hospital and community hospitals in Bromyard, Leominster, and Ross-on-Wye.

As a progressive trust, we aim to enhance care quality through collaboration. Our microbiology service covers traditional and modern methods like multiplex PCR and MALDI-TOF. The majority of training will take place at Hereford County hospital, but there will be some training placements in other hospitals in the West Midlands to cover gaps in the STP portfolio. These are all accessible by public transport if required.

Respiratory and Sleep Science – Wye Valley NHS Trust

We are a busy department offering services in basic and advanced lung function, exercise testing, NIV, sleep disordered breathing and CBTi. Despite being based in a small county hospital we provide a wide range of advanced testing that allows for exposure to different conditions. We are very experienced in teaching and supporting trainees through various levels of qualifications. We are always looking to improve and develop new services so there is the chance to be involved in improvement projects. As a team we are also involved with the ARTP at a national level. The sleep service is based at the community centre (within Hereford city centre, 5 minute drive from the hospital) so the trainee will be required to travel between sites. Herefordshire is a beautiful county with natural assets and something for everyone to enjoy.
